More Fun Pictures

January 18, 2010

I spent some time today finishing a Valentine's Day blanket for us to use. I made the top last year then ran out of time & it sat unfinished in my craft room. So, I got some nice snugly fleece & got it done. Looks great & it's going to be used a ton!

Yes, this is Spencer making his own lunch & yes there is a reason why! Friday I took him to school & he told me he forgot his lunch. Being the good Mom I am, I ran home & searched the house for his lunch box. It was no where to be found. So I made another one so my little boy wouldn't starve. Brought the newly made lunch to school & he laughed & told me he was joking, he had his lunch all along. So, Spencer is making his own lunch all this week! Hopefully his lesson has been learned: Don't mess with Mom in the morning!

Just a quick picture of my boy & one of his many silly looks!

OK, really? How can I be creative in this mess? I've been working on cleaning out my craft room. It's slow & stressful. I just wonder how one girl can have over 20 projects left unfinished?

While working in my craft room today I decided to put up the metal board I got at IKEA about 6 months ago. I also played around with the vinyl sheets I got for my Cricut a few weeks ago. Turned out pretty cute but now you know why it is taking me so long to clean out my craft room! I get side tracked so easily!

Spencer? Are you in there? I guess I should get use to this! He loves his IPod!

Today Spencer & G drove up to Tacoma to see Monster Trucks. They had a blast and took a TON of pictures with my new camera. 416 pictures to be exact, but not a single one of Spencer! 416 pictures of trucks 0 pictures of Spencer:(

OK so I posted more than one picture today but I just had to show you both. I made these totally adorable pillowcases for the kids for Valentine's Day. Once I figured the pattern out they were a piece of cake! Figuring the pattern out took FOREVER!! Oh well, they turned out very cute & the kids love them (except Lexi wanted more of the black fabric & Spencer wanted less of the pink fabric)!

Playing with my new camera's continuous shooting mode!

Spencer's basketball game. This shot was taken as he was watching to see if his shot made it in the basket & yes it did! He made his first basket in a game today!

Lexi spent the night with her friend at a church group retreat & didn't get much sleep I guess!

Homework, homework, homework! That's the life of an 8th grader!

More Pictures from 2010

January 7, 2010

So this is where my truck sat ALL day long because I couldn't get the garage door opener to do it's job!
January 6, 2010

I have a new car book. What's a car book you ask? It's a book I only read when I am waiting for one kiddo or the other while sitting in my car. It's important for a car book to be an easy read because some times I only get a few minutes to read & it would be horrible for a car book to take a while to get into!

January 5, 2010

Here's one of the three Christmas decorations I have left, but not on purpose. I always find a few stragglers after putting "everything" away in storage!

January 4, 2010

The tree is going away tomorrow & it will be missed! Christmas is over for another year **sigh**

365 for 2010

Ok, so I hinted at a special idea I have for 2010 so here it is! I am going to take a picture a day for 2010 to document my life this year. I may not post a picture every day but I will take a picture every day.

This picture is a reminder to myself to relax & enjoy myself! The beautiful tulips were given to me by my wonderful G on our 14th anniversary!

This is a picture of my day on the computer, getting organized & having fun with my digital scrapbooking! And of course I included my coffee cup because that's my fuel to keep going!

This is Lexi in a before picture (after picture to come soon). She is cleaning out & getting ready for a little room revamp!

One Word

I'm not really good at New Year's Resolutions. This year I have decided to focus on one word rather than making resolutions. So here's my little word for 2010: ENJOY



More to come soon on my "enjoy"ment of photos. But here's a hint: 365 pictures in Twenty-ten!

A Super Busy End of the Year!

Wow, time has just flown by & I don't know how! It seems like just yesterday when I was making sure I had spent about the same on each kid for Christmas gifts! And to be honest, they really wouldn't have know anyway they were so exited! You would think the excitement of Christmas morning would decrease as they got older... Heck no! And I still get totally excited right with them!
Here are a few pictures from the last few weeks to share with you! Hope you enjoy!
